I am afraid Chad will loose to make strength getting to 165 , and I put Roger right up there because his weight is 165 and is back and forth with Craig , if I remember Roger had won 3 out of 8 times

Bryon Thomas has to be on that list. He and Soliwada are the best in the country under 154. The top three, Silvers, Tullier and Fisher should be ironed out in Chehalis. I also wouldn't be shocked if Thomas or Soliwada could pull off a few wins over them. Chad, in my opinion would be right there in the top three at 198 if he put on 20 pounds (yes, even if it was all fat from eating hookburgers). Though something tells me catfish is a staple in his diet.  By the end of the year I think Cobra might make his way into the top spot. Somewhere I would imagine (Wisconsin maybe) Jeremy Hurst is just smiling and training harder. |

Cobra in my opinion is not ready to be on that list yet, but I will agree with Travis' list.

At this point, in the US
Silvers
Fisher
Tullier
Rick Soliwada
Bryon Thomas
If you go NA, tough to say but.
Somewhere in this mix, you have Vern Martel, Dennis Dubriel, and as always I think if he can make 171 he can make 165, George I

There could be some surprises at Unifieds this year. We'll see.

1. Allen Fisher 2. Roger Nowatzke 3. Craig Tullier 4. Chad Silvers 5. Olin Lucas I am afraid Chad will loose to make strength getting to 165 , and I put Roger right up there because his weight is 165 and is back and forth with Craig , if I remember Roger had won 3 out of 8 times I am afraid Craig would annihilate Roger "The Train". IMO. Not to cut Roger out of due credit. He is an awesome puller, but he shouldn't be put above Tullier. I think Olin is injured? Not sure if he should be placed there either...at this time. by Simon Berriochoa I would also have to disagree with Silvers being over Tullier; the past has proven otherwise. Maybe Silvers has made advancements since their last meet. I would have to place Soliwada either in the first or second, especially after Vegas! Good list nonetheless. |

I was not really putting them in order just the 5, with a group like that, it is tough to say how it would flush out. Ricks hand and top is world class, he can give anyone trouble, I think it would be interesting to see Rick and Craig only because Craig has a very normal size hand, though I have heard how strong he and his hand are.
Rick has been a bit light in the power department but he is a full fledged 154 now and his power is growing very well, Rick would need to stay out of thd strap against Craig and Chad, I think no strap outside he has a very good chance.
I know Jacques well, very good puller, Vern has handled him though so he might be a bit outside of this group, I think Jacques is a lot better at 165 than 154.

Rick did look very good in Vegas, but I think Roger would out power him, Roger has to much hand control, Craig and Roger are very close, I think Craig has alittle more table smarts, Roger gets to much attitude going and forgets things, so depending on the day who would win, I would love to see a best of 5 with with and Craig or Chad or Rick or Allen, any of them, I love Roger's attitude, he could pull 154 anytime he wanted but moves up just to pull Craig and the rest of the bad boy's, he always says what is a title if you don't beat the man to win it
